Title: Bachmann Farish TPO's
Post by: porkie on October 14, 2013, 07:23:15 PM
Ive always fanced buying a few of these.
Either the royalmail letters or other.
The thing thats putting me off is.
My royalmail farish BG's are a diffrent shade of red to the early type TPO I have.
Do the newer ones have the same fault?

cheers

Phil

Phil,

I have the TPO's 374-901 along with the old Farish 0787 Royal Mail BG's and they are a different shade of red. Likewise the Post Office GUV's 4107. I reckon it's going to be difficult to get anything to match :worried:

The real things didn't always match perfectly. Paint fades, just weather the darker shaded ones more 8)
